Expected about once in	A day with at least	Note
2 years	101.8 mm (4.0 in)
5 years	136.5 mm (5.4 in)
10 years	158.1 mm (6.2 in)
25 years	183.7 mm (7.2 in)
50 years	201.7 mm (7.9 in)	Longer than the 35 years of record
100 years	218.7 mm (8.6 in)	Longer than the 35 years of record

The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 35 years of values from 1930 to 2012.

A return level is an estimate. It is least reliable for the long periods, 50 and 100 years, and for any period longer than the record behind the fit, where the fit has to reach past the largest day actually observed. It is not a forecast.

The largest wettest-day totals in the fit: 189.2 mm (7.4 in) in 1960; 181.4 mm (7.1 in) in 1934; 174.5 mm (6.9 in) in 1935.
